Making Voices Visible is a thread that runs through most of my professional activities since 2004. Prior to that, as an architect I sought to make aspirations and goals visible in drawings and then give them life in bricks and mortar. As a graphic facilitator I evolved those skills to cover yards and yards of chart paper as I helped others see what they were saying and thinking, and then understanding those things in new ways - live and unrehearsed. As an illustrator, people have used my work to give their voices to creative conversations and hidden insights. Along the way, I’ve been described in various ways: an architect of ideas; a graphic developmentologist;  the love child of Batman and the Cat in the Hat.

Photography, on the other hand, is increasingly about making my own voices visible. For most of my life cameras have been fascinating implements, capable of amazing things. Thanks to a mentorship in 2020, I learned to begin to look less to the tool and more inside my own self for that fascination and amazement. That “beginning” continues.
